Текст Rooftop Prophets — Ray

1994 things became clear in my high school
Some kids would demise the old lunch rule
And Ray was the first one to break it, he was
Four litres attempting to run up till hundred
as he sped through our neighborhood junkyard
burning tires and cheap gasoline he never bought

But as he approached some road side construction he noticed a detail quite strange
A semi was parked up tight in the middle and it was only forty feet away

Faster than the speed of light, careless like a 12 inch knife
given up like last years weather he surely seemed a little better
Thicker than our prison walls, faker than our shopping malls,
braver than the brothers seven, now he’s driving them to heaven

Back from lunchbreak, physics had already started,
but the class seemed somewhat more quiet,
we all wandered whatever had happened to him
At night I heard it, the newsbreak was clear and objective,
said that speeding was reason pre-emptive,
that the impact was sudden and deadly, for him

Knew him enough, knew he was restless, knew he never gave a damn
Some people out there just can’t learn, seems to me that Ray was one of them

Faster than the speed of light, careless like a 12 inch knife
given up like last years weather he surely seemed a little better
Thicker than our prison walls, faker than our shopping malls,
braver than the brothers seven, now he’s driving them to heaven

Faster than the speed of light, careless like a 12 inch knife
given up like last years weather he surely seemed a little better
Thicker than our prison walls, faker than our shopping malls,
braver than the brothers seven, now he’s driving them to heaven
